wikis+with+students

I've collaborated with social studies teacher creating a wiki that students added information to and a reading teacher with a blog about books the students read. I used pbwiki and gaggle blog. This was with 5th and 6th grade. [|__http://cisdsocialstudies.pbwiki.com/__] [|__http://www.gaggle.net/blog/wwwgagglenetblogscisreading__]

I posted a request several weeks ago for examples of classroom blogs and wikis that I could use in a workshop. I'm happy to report the workshop went well, and my principal, who attended and really got into blogging, now wants me to do a presentation for the entire staff at our upcoming professional development day. Better late than never, here is a hit:

All the participants added to the wiki and created a blog.

My husband teaches high school in Orange County, CA. He teaches film studies and started a wiki this year which his students contribute to (three periods, around 90 students total). Here's the link: __http://alisofilmstudies.wikispaces.com__

In one of our first attempts, my last year's 7th grade students used pbwiki to create a web presence for their environmental studies project. It is not anything unique, but I felt they did a nice job considering that it was totally student-generated, and that it was their first effort. It can be found at ergc.pbwiki.com, then go to the class of 2008 home page, and check the archives.
